U-Turn…

He couldn’t remember the last time he had left work early on a Friday… And he intended on enjoying every minute, when the wife called. Hey there Hon!… She seemed out of breath. The kids have started arriving for Millie’s birthday and I just got a call… There was some kind of misunderstanding, and you have to…… Continue reading U-Turn…

Just a picture…

He held the picture tenderly. It wasn’t the best he ever took, by all means. For one thing, he wished they had arrived just a little earlier in front of the great basilica. The fall’s sun setting light was so much warmer than he would have expected, that he would have loved to capture her…… Continue reading Just a picture…

Napping – #1MinFiction

  * When he snapped out of his nap, he was surrounded by eight not very happy looking security guards. Not the best way to wake up, by all means… Are you Mr Sean Wilson? By the man’s tone of voice, Sean had the feeling he should lift his hands up, but he just nodded.…… Continue reading Napping – #1MinFiction

Rendez-vous…

Do you still think they’ll come? Luke picked up his cup of coffee to take a sip. The beverage had run cold, and he put it back on the big log. I doubt it, Mark… But maybe they just got delayed. For two whole hours, without even texting them. They had met the girls online……… Continue reading Rendez-vous…

Something in the news… (September 25th FFF)

Fandango scrolls back, every Friday, and gives a second chance to a post he had published on the same date the year before. I thought it was a great way to remember some of the stuff I did a while back, and I decided to participate……… Continue reading Something in the news… (September 25th FFF)

Surprise!

She loved doing this. Her prank required two things… Sneakers, preferably of bright colors. And the perfect spot. She could spend days looking for it. This path was ideal… Pedestrians chose it to walk their dogs, or for their daily jogging. The weather was amazing, and the shoes awaited the first passersby.

All roads lead to… – FFFC

You really should stop feeding these flyin’ rats, Ian! The two old men sat on the bench, just as they did pretty much every day the weather allowed them to. The park was the perfect spot, to say the least, to keep an eye on all the neighbourhood’s whereabouts. And keeping up to date with…… Continue reading All roads lead to… – FFFC
